Company description
Each session is individualized to your specific needs, goals, and interests. There are many components including massage/bodywork, postural assessment, movement education, fitness training and environmental modifications. Each session will follow a basic 5-step outline.
Assessment:
In assessing your everyday activities, I can help you to understand which patterns you use interfere with your optimal functioning.
Pre-Testing:
The pre-test consists of a basic activity such as walking, lifting a heavy object, sitting, bending, or standing. After Massage/bodywork or movement education, this experience will serve as a basis for comparison.
Massage/Bodywork and Movement Education:
Using your assessment and pre-test, the client and I determine what lesson would be most valuable for that session. Massage/Bodywork and/or Movement Education will be included in virtually all sessions. Additionally, Structural Integration techniques, Trigger points Therapy (knots in muscles), Aston Kinetics (3 dimensional bodywork), Advanced myofascial release, (joint/ligiment work) along with Reflexology will also be included as necessary. All components serve to release an unnecessary tension and make your new movement easier and more efficient.
Post-Testing:
The post-testing is a repetition of the pre-testing movements, allowing you to see and feel the changes that have taken place. Here, after photos are utilized as needed for comparison.
Applications:
The application integrates the movement changes into your daily life, tailored to you as an individual. Once old movement tendencies have been neutralized, new patterns can be integrated into new movement options to sustain the changes gained. These lessons can become permanent options available to you with your awareness and practice.
